Background documentationLoading Data from ODP Source Systems Directly into InfoProviders Locate this document in the navigation structure

 

In the data transfer process (DTP) maintenance screen, you can specify that data is not extracted from the Persistent Staging Area (PSA) of the DataSource. Instead the data is requested directly from the data source at DTP runtime and then transferred to the InfoProvider. It is not necessary to load the data into the PSA beforehand, using an InfoPackage.

The flag Do not extract from PSA; use direct access to data source is displayed if the DTP source is a DataSource and the source system is an operational data provisioning (ODP) source system. Using the ODP data replication interface and this function allow you to extract mass data.

Note the following:

  • Direct loading in Full mode is supported for the ODP contexts SAP HANA and SAP Business ByDesign.

  • If errors occur during processing, you need to extract the data again in BW because the PSA is not available in the buffer.
